• Support clinicians with scheduling, using Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) and digital health platforms.
• Coordinate patient care with the appropriate clinicians, including referral processing and ensuring patients are informed about any appointment information required.
• Provide further instruction or information as required to patients prior to the visit.
• Coordinate patient care by referral to the medical neighbourhood (i.e., patients identified in a PMH project that require care outside of the Patient’s Medical Home).

Requirements
